About Litecoin (LTC)
Litecoin is a cryptocurrency and blockchain that differentiates itself from Bitcoin by using a different mining algorithm and processing transactions faster.
Litecoin was first conceived of and later launched by Charlie Lee in October, 2011. Litecoin is a fork of Bitcoin and technically similar; however, it uses a different proof-of-work mining algorithm called ‘scrypt.’
